Spatial

This is the information page for Spatial Monsters in real life. For Spatial Monsters in YGOPRO, see the Category for Spatial Monsters.

Spatial (スペーシュル Supeeshuru; displayed as Ｓｐｔスペーシュル on Japanese cards) is a new monster type for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters card game created by Lyris1064 . Spatial Monsters have a bright, hot pink frame and are stored in the Extra Deck, and they cannot be sent to the Graveyard by any means, except if they're sent there from being banished. Spatial Summoning can be conducted by banishing a monster(s) with a Level on the controller's side of the field that are listed on the Summoned Spatial Monster's lore. If a Spatial Monster(s) would be sent to the graveyard, they are banished, instead.

The Spatials' indicator is called a Dimensional Number and it's different from other the indicators (Level, Rank, Wavelength, Hierarchy, etc.) because it's formatted differently outside of the Japanese OCG: #th Dimension or 1st/2nd/3rd Dimension in the case of Dimensional Numbers 1-3 (次元第#). Dimensional Numbers are centered on the card in the form of pink spirals inside light blue orbs: . Dimensional Negative Numbers also exist, and they look like light blue spirals inside red orbs:

While in the Monster Zone, all Spatial Monsters with effects are only able to activate them if they were Spatial Summoned, and only up to a number of times while face-up on the field equal to the number of Tributes that would normally be required to Tribute Summon a monster with the same Level as the Spatial Monster's original Dimensional Number.

Spatial Pendulum Monsters

Spatial Pendulum Monsters do not have the trait that prevents them from being destroyed because they are sent back to the Extra Deck face-up instead of going to the Graveyard. Most Pendulum Spatial Monsters have this effect: If this card in the Monster Zone is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can destroy as many cards in your Pendulum Zones as possible (min. 1), and if you do, place this card in your Pendulum Zone.

Examples

• Starry-Eyes Spatial Dragon: 7th Dimension
  • Photon Wyvern & Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon
• Astral Dragon of Stellar Vine : 8th Dimension
  • Clarissa, Queen of Stellar Vine & Girl of Stellar Vine
• Osa, Princess of Stellar Vine: 4th Dimension
  • Jackie, Maiden of Stellar Vine & Elder Entity Norden

Rulings

• If a Spatial Summon is negated, the Spatial Monster that was going to be Summoned is still banished instead of being sent to the Graveyard.
• If a Spatial Monster becomes an Xyz Material and it is detached, it is banished instead of going to the Graveyard.
• If banishing becomes impossible by a means such as Imperial Iron Wall, then the Spatial Summon also becomes impossible.

Trivia

• The pink color of the Spatial monsters is brighter than the pink on a Trap Card.
• Spatial sounds similar to Special, and was therefore chosen for the new card type name.
